Standard System vs Metric System In the United States, we use standard measurement units In most of the world, they use the metric system
length & distance • using these tools – meter stick, ruler, tape measure, measuring wheel • english units – inch • metric units – meter • Basic unit we will use in science – meter (m)
length & distance • task – Complete the tasks on your worksheet – Help each other take measurements – You MUST have units after your number – For what we are measuring it will be cm for centimeters
mass • using these tools – triple beam balance, scale • english units – pound (lb) • metric units – kilogram (kg) • basic unit we will use in science – gram (g)
mass • task – Complete the tasks on your worksheet – You MUST have units after your number – For what we are measuring it will be g for grams
temperature • using these tools – thermometer • english units – Fahrenheit (F) • metric units – Celsius (C) or Kelvins (K) • basic unit we will use in science – Celsius (C)
temperature • task – Complete the tasks on your worksheet – Help each other take measurements – You MUST have units after your number – For what we are measuring it will be C for Celsius
time • using these tools – stopwatch, clock, hourglass • standard units – seconds • metric units – seconds • Basic unit we use in science – seconds
time • tasks – Complete the tasks on your worksheet – Help each other take measurements – You MUST have units after your number – For what we are measuring it will be s for seconds
volume • using these tools – graduated cylinder, beaker, erlenmeyer flask • standard units – gallon • metric units – liter • basic unit we will use in science – mililiter (m. L)
volume • task – Complete the tasks on your worksheet – Help each other take measurements – You MUST have units after your number – For what we are measuring it will be m. L for mililiter
force • using these tools – spring scale • standard units – Newtons (N) • metric units – Newtons (N) • basic unit we will use in science – Newtons (N)
force • task – Complete the tasks on your worksheet – Help each other take measurements – You MUST have units after your number – For what we are measuring it will be N for Newtons
